39 and Glamourous! Blog Hop Day 1

Happy Birthday to my good friend, Bonnie!!  You look amazing--no one could ever take you for 39! Welcome to the 39 and Glamourous Blog Hop, celebrating Bonnie's Birthday!  You should have arrived from Nancy and her incredible blog.  If you just came to visit One By One, and want to do the entire hop, you can head over to A Scrap Above and begin at the begining.
To me, no one had more galmour than the women in the 20s, 30s and 40s.  They dressed up to go anywhere--grocery shopping required a hat and stockings (with those sexy seams down the back!), dinner out meant a gown and a fur wrap and they danced in high heels!  One of the most glamourous of all stars was the iconic Betty Boop, who, as one of the first *talkies* had a sexy little whisper to go with her legs, and her *Boop-Boop-A-Doop* was a come-hither line long before Bacall told Bogie to whistle.


Not only us Bonnie a beautiful 39, she's also a creative member of my Design Team. She's always got a new and fun way to make projects, and I'm so honored to be her friend. To help her celebrate, I jumped right on this hop--and I'm having a blast! It's a super fun hop, and, to make it even more special, , Bonnie got some wonderful folks to sponsor the hop---including:
I Got Lucky Scraps
Kich N Bleus
Shelley Bean Stamps
Tickled Pink Stamps
Scrappin Hens
Paper Craft World
Scrappin Good Time (Retreat stay, MUST complete hop and challenge)
There will be a challenge at the end of the hop. To participate, you will need to hop along to ALL the blogs and "look" for challenge clues. Please note that they will not be on every blog. There are 13 clues randomly placed on 13 blogs. As you find these, write them down as they will help you with the CHALLENGE.. At the end of the hop Lisa will tell you what to do with these clues...
Then link your complete challenge project by due date and add it to the Mr. Linky on http://ascrapabove.blogspot.com/, this is the "final" step to be in the drawing for the Scrapbook retreat stay. (info on Bonnie's Blog)

 I made this a 5 X 7 inch card, since Betty needed to be cut larger than an A2 card could handle. The background is DCWV glitter paper in black, and the shiny gold letters are leftovers from another project.  I used SCAL to create Betty, and cut her at 6 inches.  I used scraps to cut her top layers, and put them on a shadow of black cardstock.  Her garter and hatband are red rhinestones, set with my IRock.  I adhered her to the glitter base with my ATG and my Zig 2-Way pen.  Her mouth is just a tiny up-side-down heart of Christmas Red Stickles.




My blog candy for this hop is all three of the cards you'll be seeing for the three days, along with a surprise element I used to create each one.  How to win?  Just become a follower and leave a comment here.  If you go back and leave a comment on yesterday's post, and leave an additional comment tomorrow, you'll have three chances to win! Please make sure you leave me your email (in the safe, ksjennings at gmail dot com format, please) so I can notify you personally if you've won. Randy, from random.org will choose the winner on Monday, April 18.
Now, you should head over to Jenny's Blog, Crazy About Cricut.  She always has something that's the bee's knees going on!  If you get lost, here's the whole line-up to help out.  Enjoy the rest of the hop--and Be Blessed!
